Meethi Eid occurs on the first day of Shawwal in the Islamic calendar every year.

The Muslim community throughout the world is getting ready to celebrate Eid Al-Fitr as the Holy Month of Ramzan draws to a close. It is also known as Meethi Eid, and it commemorates the completion of Ramadan's month-long period of Roza (fasting). As a result, it is also known as the fast-breaking festival.

When is Meethi Eid in 2022?

Meethi Eid occurs on the first day of Shawwal in the Islamic calendar every year. According to experts, the start of any lunar Hijri month varies depending on when the new moon is spotted by local religious officials, therefore it does not always occur on the same Gregorian day. As a result, the date of Eid fluctuates from year to year.

Meethi Eid (or Eid Al-Fitr) is projected to begin on the evening of May 2, 2022 and end on the evening of May 3, 2022 this year.

We've compiled a selection of traditional Eid-themed dishes that will make you feel even more merry in the most delicious way. Take a peek around.

Rose Sharbat: A popular drink served during Eid, rose sharbat is fragrant, pleasant, and aids in the preparation of a flavorful meal.

You may always buy rose syrup and make the cooler yourself, but we recommend preparing it from scratch. The rose sharbat cooked at home is really excellent. Sugar syrup, rose petals and flavours, rose fragrance, and milk are all you need.

Biryani: Biryani is another must-try meal that screams indulgence. Everyone enjoys biryani, which consists of aromatic rice blended with spices and succulent meat chunks. The differences in the dish are what we like the most; every location in India has its own biryani recipes to offer.

Mutton Shami Kebab: What kind of feast would be complete without some scrumptious kebabs? We are unable to do so. Kebabs' char-grilled and smokey scent, as well as their melt-in-your-mouth texture, are enough to hook you.

Kimami Sewaiyan: To say that Meethi Eid is incomplete without kimami sewaiyan is an understatement. This delicacy is packed with the benefits of makhana, almonds, coconut, cashew, raisins cooked with milk, khoya, sugar, and vermicelli.

Phirni: A traditional Eid recipe, phirni is a thicker version of kheer cooked with broken rice. The rose-saffron phirni is a delicious way to add a sweet touch to your celebration.

This Meethi Eid, make your celebration an enjoyable occasion by trying out these classic recipes.
